I Should Have

The sun drops into the corner of my backyard sending the last shards of sunlight through the blinds of my family room. I sit in my cold leather chair staring at the television which isn’t even on. The silence is stifling but for the constant ticking of the cheap clock on the wall. I think about the things I will avoid doing tomorrow and remember the things I put off today. It is the start of yet another sleepless night. It’s times like this…..I realize….
I should have fought……….for you.
